455 illegal migrants were detained by the police in Moscow's Otradnoye District on the night of October 17-18. The migrants came from Central Asia and the North Caucasus Federal District. One came from an ex-CIS country and Belarus, Natsionalny Aktsent reports.
A criminal case on illegal migration has been initiated.
The Russian Duma approved the 10-year ban on entrance of migrants caught for violations of the law. An excess of migrants has aggravated the situation on the labour market of Russia, lawmakers say.
